The PCI slot 00:11.6 of the modem card may be disabled early in
a bootup process, but then enabled later. If modem drivers load
but the modem is not responsive, read Bootup.txt about possible fixes.
Send dmesg.txt along with ModemData.txt to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
if help is needed.

PCIbus=00:11.6
00:11.6 Communication controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 80)
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 201
I/O ports at 1000 [disabled] [size=256]
Capabilities: [d0] Power Management version 2
For candidate modem in PCI bus: 00:0b.0
Class 0703: 134d:2189 Modem: PCTel Inc HSP56 MicroModem
Primary PCI_id 134d:2189
Support type needed or chipset: slamr
134d:2189 is a PCTel HSP56 MicroModem 688T modem with the Oasis chipset.
Under 2.6.n kernels, it is only supported through the Smartlink slamr.ko driver.
The modem is supported by the Smartlink slamr driver
plus the slmodemd helper utility. Read the
Smartlink.txt and Modem/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance.

For candidate modem in PCI bus: 00:11.6
Class 0780: 1106:3068 Communication controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. AC'97 Modem Controller
Primary PCI_id 1106:3068
Subsystem PCI_id none , 134d is an ALSA compatible identification

from Archives:
Lacking a dsp (digital signal processing) chip, the modem is a software
intensive or "softmodem" type. Its primary controller manages the traffic
with the CPU. But the software needed is specified in the Subsystem.
-----------------------------------------
Support type needed or chipset: slmodemd
An ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) modem driver: snd-via82xx-modem
provides Low Level support enabling contact with the modem hardware.
For all BUT Conexant chip soft modems (using hsfmodem software)
complementary High Level support is through a Smartlink utility: slmodemd
Download from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/smartlink/
the package SLMODEMD-1.0.13.tar.gz having a compiled slmodemd. Unpack under Linux with:
$ tar zxf SLMODEMD-1.0.13.tar.gz
and read instructions therein. But briefly, the modem is setup with command:
slmodemd -c YOUR_COUNTRY --alsa modem:1
reporting dynamic creation of ports:
/dev/ttySL0 --> /dev/pts/N , with N some number
Read Smartlink.txt and Modem/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance.
Already loaded into the kernel is snd-via82xx-modem and audio drivers it depends on,

Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.2
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.2
Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
kernel-source-2.6.18-4-k7
For Debian and some related distributions, a package kernel-kbuild-2.6-3 may be needed to support driver compiling
